Fried meaning it died of it's own accord or you fried it? - Just curious - Thanks

There're usually a few around at any point in time. I checked the classifieds here and there're only Gen IVs on there now. Try Ebay; there used to be a bunch on there when AEMs were widely available....the pickings are a little thinner now but I bet they're still out there

I have a '96 PCM originally purchased from Roe Racing laying around somewhere. I ran it in my '01 for a while and it would work fine in your '97. $400 plus shipping if you are interested.

Just remember that the replacement pcm will have a different mileage and VIN stored. That might be a problem when trying to sell the car down the road, if somebody checks. Maybe get the mileage reprogrammed at your local delaership once you have the pcm installed.

Just an FYI, I can get my hands on new 1996 and possibly 1997 computers, no VIN entered. If you desired to do so, we can sell it w/SCT to flash it into the EXACT ECU you have right now if it is a differing software version.

Note: This is assuming that 1997 ECU's are currently not available brand new as that may be cheaper, but highly unlikely there are any around at this point.
